The most impressive and disturbing thing is this:
"The Veyron's powerful engine gurgled like an outboard motor for about 15 minutes before it died"
I would not like to see the rebuild bill for that engine. ouch!!

The driver claims he was distracted by a low flying pelican. I watched the video four times and didn't see any pelican. The genius was probably composing a text message.

I thought the video a few weeks ago of the guy trying to do a burnout in the Dodge truck was brilliant, but this takes the cake for the stupidity award.

What's next? Some guy trying to save a pack of cigarettes from a wood chipper?

I looked it over myself a few times.....there is some white blotch that appears on the ground the instant his tires touches the grassy edge. He should have hit the damn thing. Still...it looks like he made a BIG mistake no matter.

That Veyron is done.... It's a 100% writeoff. Nothing can be saved on that.

Not only that, but I wouldnt trust ANYONE with rebuilding my 1.6 million dollar 256MPH supercar but the factory!!
